NYUCD's annual Student Research Day grew significantly in 2010, by covering two days (April 21 and 22) instead of one day, and by showcasing outstanding work by 15 dental students, a nursing student, and, for the first time, a master's degree candidate from the NYU Polytechnic Institute, plus two undergraduate students from the NYU College of Arts & Science. Twenty-four faculty members judged 113 submissions that spanned areas of interest ranging from the basic sciences to biomedical engineering. Vice Dean for Research Dr. Louis Terracio presided over the two-day poster presentations and awards presentation.

"All of the awardees have contributed to the knowledge base in the health sciences," said Dean Bertolami. "Their achievements and their collaborations with faculty mentors exemplify NYUCD's commitment to research as an integral part of the dental education experience."

NYUCD congratulates all of the awardees on their significant contributions to the knowledge base in the health sciences.
